Criminal – Sentencing – Sexual exploitation of children

Where a defendant, who was sentenced to 60 years in prison after pleading guilty to four counts of sexual exploitation of children, and now claims that (1) under the Ex Post Facto Clause, an earlier, more lenient guideline edition should have been used, (2) the sentence is unreasonable because the court below improperly assessed his risk of recidivism and (3) the sentence is substantively unreasonable based on the “totality of the circumstances,” none of his arguments are sufficient to warrant a reduction in his sentence.
